    One of my favorites that I keep posted on our fridge is this:

    “The strength to do battle begins with enlisting the strength of God.”

    In the battle of life it is not the critic who count; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or the doer of the deed could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood: who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again because there is no effort without error or shortcoming; who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions,and spends himself in a worthy cause: who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have tasted neither victory nor defeat. Theodore Roosevelt
